Though the cheerless day be long,

between Chillicothe and Portsmouth.
In November, 1924, there was held in this
church the seventh annual convention Of the
Episcopal Church, At which time Bishop Chase,
Just returned from England, reported the result
Of his visit there behalf Of tho Church Of
Ohio, and gave nn account Of the gifts and other

At this meeting the Grst steps were taken

LONDON, March l1.-A sensation has
been caused BY the publication Of General
Sir Redvers Buffers evidence before
the Land Commission. It appears that
General Butler testified that what law
there was In Counties Kerry, Clarc and
Cork was ON the side Of tho rich, and he OK.
pressed the opinion that 1t would bo seri-
Gus matter, with thcir grievances unre-
dressed. to attempt to suppress by force
the tenants right TO openly associate for
the protection Of their interests. A ma-
Ijority Of the tenants, he said, struggled
to pay their rents, and, where they
could, did pay; but in great many cases
the rents werc too high and such a. the
ltenants could not pay. He said there
would never be peaoo In ireland until there
had been established court having strong
cocrcive powers over bad landlords and
protective powers over poor tenants.
The Pail Nall Gdzeste declares that the
facts attested by General Butler come like
o flash Of vivid lightning. revealing the
naked horrors OF organized injustice In
ireland. 1t says: "No crime which the
moonlighters or dynamiters can commit
will be comparable to the criminality Of
giving anoth sr days grace TO the foul fab
rc Of legalized wrong erected on Irish
soil-a fabric which the Tories now seek
to buttress bv further misdeeds."

Wonderful Richard Donovan.

There recently died at Potsdam, St.
Lawrence county, Richard Donovan,
who was in some respects one Of the
most remarkable men in northern New
York. Twenty years ago, when boy,
Donovan lived in Watertown aud work
cd in -four mill. One day he was caught
in belt and received injuries that ne
cesstated taking off both arms at the
shoulders.
This great misfortune did not dis
courage him, and after recovering his
health he set about earning his livei-
hood as best be could without the use
of hands or arms. Part Of the time he
had lived alone, and from the necessity
of helping himself he became wonder
fully adept in performing all kinds of
work, using bis feet and mouth princi-
pally lie owned horse, of which be
took the entire care, harnessed y, fas-
toned and unfastened the buckles with
his teeth, and drove with the reins tied
around his shoulders. Being in need of
a wagon, he bought wheels aud axles
and built II box buggy complete aud
painted it, He went TO the barn Que
winter day and built COW stable, saw
ing the lumber with his feet, and with
the hammer in one foot and holding the
nail with the other, be nailed the boards
on as well as most men could with their
hands lie dug a well twelve feet deep
on farm in this town aud stoned it
himself He could NOV away hay by
holding the fork under bis chin and lot
ting it rest against his shoulder He
would pick up potatoes in the field us
fast as a man could dig Their He
would dress himself, get his meals, write
bis letters, and, in fact, do almost any
thing that man with two arms could
do. He was engaged for some time
with Thomas Collins, Of Potsdam, in
the sale of buggies and sleighs and has
lately been engaged in buying and sell
ing hides and pelts BY his industry
and frugality he succeeded in amassing
a snug little property house
and lot, and was worth in all about

A SONG FOR WOMEN.

A SONG FOR WOMEN.
Within dreary, narrow room,
That looks upon nosome street
Half fainting with the sitting heat
A starving girl works out her doom.
Yet not the less in Gods sweet air
The little birds sing free of care,
And hawthorns blossom everywhere.
Swift, ceaseess toll scarce winneth bread;
From early dawn till twilight falls,
Shut in by four dull ugly walls,
The hours crawl round with murdersus
tread,
And all the while, in some still place,
Where INTERVIEWING boughs embra ce,
The bIackbirds build time flies apace
With envy Of the folk who die,
Who may at last their leisure take,
Whose onged.for sleep none roughly
wake,
Tired hands the restless needle ply;
But far and wide is meadows green
The golden butterclps are seen
And reddening sorrel mods between
Too pure and proud to soil her SOUL
Or stoop 10 basely gotten gain,
BY days Of changeless want and pain
The seamstress earns II prisoners dole.
While in the peaceful fields the sheep
Feed, quiet and through heavens blue
deep
The silent cloud-wngs stainless sweep
And if she be alive or dead
That weary woman scarcely knows
But back and forth her needle goes,
In tune with throbbing heart and head.
Lol where the leaning alders part
White bossomed swallows, b.ithe of heart,
Above still waters skim and dart
Oh, God in heaven shall |, who shares
That dying woman's womanhood,
Taste all the summers bounteous good,
Unburdened by her weight of care?
The white moon-daises star the grass,
The lengthening shadows Ger them pass,
The meadows pool is smooth as glass

A Hint to Teachers.

Two little boys we're playing by the
roadside as the new master passed along
They hid behind board fence and
peepcd out as the genial-faced man came
whistling along, twirling a flower in bis
hand, watching with interest some birds
10 tree above them. One little fellow
took in the human side of the stranger
at glance exclaimed: mo, Bob. that
amt the master; it's man." eyes, my
boy, am man as we'll as the master, "
and he picked up tho little fellow and
lifted him up as high as his arms could
carry him, and as he rolled him over on
the grass in a rollicking way he said
"Pll always be man in the eyes Of the
boys if can" 1t is not easy for

be, but the genius usually approximates

WHEN CHICKENS COME
ROME 10 ROOST.

You may take the world as it comes
and goes,
And you viii be sure to find
That fate will square the accounts
she owes,
Whoever comes out behind;
And all things bad that a man has
done,
By whatsoever induced,
Return at last to him, one by one.
AS chickens come home to roost.
You may scrape and toll and pinch
and save,
While your boarded wealth ex.
pands,
Till the cold dark shadows of the
grave
Is nearing your life's last sands;
You'll have your balance struck
somenight,
And you'll find your hoard re.
duced,
You'll view your life in another
light,
When the chickens come home
to roost.
You can stint your soul and starve
Your heart
With the husks of a barren
creed,
But Christ will know if you play a
part,
viii know in your hour of need;
And then as you wait for death to
come
What hope can there be deduced
From a creed alone? You will lie
there dumb
While your chickens come home
to roost.
Sow as you will, there's time tc
reap.
For the good and bad as well,
And conscience, whether we wake
or sleep,
Is either a heaven or hell;
And every wrong will find its place;
And every passion loosed,
Drifts back ard meets you face to
face
When the chickens come home
to roost.
W neither you re over or under the
sod
The result will be the same;
You cannot escape the hand Of
God,
You must bear your sin OIL
shame.
No matter what's carved on a mar
bic slab,
When the items are all produced
You'll find that st Peter was keep
ing tab,
And that chickens come home
to roost.
